Avoid the Light Lyrics

Modern day plague
Stronger than any and every virus, Disease or sickness

Full eclipse of Ideality
Anti-christian, and nocturnally alive (undead)
Buried underneath 2000 years (of histories)
Yet able to rise
Instinctively arise

Avoid the light
The sun's in sight
The undead should be sleeping
Avoid the light
That cross so bright
My fledglings dropping, weeping
Avoid the light
Overt your sight
Go underground discreetly
Avoid the light, avoid the light, avoid the light, avoid the light

True and purely hollow
Man's ultimate enemy and predator
Wrapped into one

Spread like wings
Of damnated
Then falling into
Shaping mortal man (nonslaved)
Plasma cover
Will override (your true emotions)
The pure inversion
To guard my countless graves

Avoid the light
The sun's in sight
The undead should be sleeping
Avoid the light
That cross of light
My fledglings dropping, weeping
Avoid the light
Overt your sight
Go underground discreetly

Alone, Unseen, Reborn, Receieve

It's a battle of wills (it's a battle of wills)
In glory he'll sneak in (he shall devour)

(solo)

Avoid the light
The sun's in sight
The undead should be sleeping
Avoid the light
That cross of light
My fledglings dropping, weeping
Avoid the light
Overt your sight
Go underground discreetly
Avoid the light

I love the chorus in this song. It sounds like a vampire's dying breaths, his last words a warning to the undead.

Cover art for Avoid the Light lyrics by Pantera

Old people like the shade and they avoid the light. Heh, I don't know if it has a serious meaning. I think it's just a song to go along with the movie.

Has anybody been able to figure out what's being said at the very beginning of the song? It sounds like spoken words being played in reverse. Anybody else have a theory?

Cover art for Avoid the Light lyrics by Pantera

Reverse speak sounds something like this; Satan's wrath is the only choice, his still-born army is impeccable

A bunch of lines are wrong, so I've written out the correct lyrics for the song.

Backwards Satan's wrath is the only choice His still-born army is impeccable

Modern day plague Stronger than any and every Virus, disease, or sickness

Full eclipse Of ideality Anti-christian And nocturnally alive (undead) Buried underneath Two-thousand years (of histories) Yet able to rise Instinctively arise

Avoid the light The sun's in sight The undead should be sleeping Avoid the light That cross so bright My fledglings dropping, weeping Avoid the light Overt your sight Go underground discretely Avoid the light Avoid the light Avoid the light Avoid the light

True and pure horror Man's ultimate enemy and predator Wrapped into one

Spread black wings Of damnated Then falling into Shaping mortal man (nonslaved) Plasma cover Will override (your true emotion) The pure inversion To guard my countless graves

Avoid the light The sun's in sight The undead should be sleeping Avoid the light That cross of light My fledglings dropping, weeping Avoid the light Overt your sight Go underground discretely Alone Unseen Reborn Reseed

It's a battle of wills (It's a battle of wills) Ingloriously killed (We shall devour)

[Guitar solo]

Avoid the light The sun's in sight The undead should be sleeping Avoid the light That cross of light My fledglings dropping, weeping Avoid the light Overt your sight Go underground discretely Avoid the light Avoid the light Avoid the light Avoid the light

Backwards Satan's wrath is the only choice His still-born army is impeccable
